Netflix lockt Talente mit Elternzeit

Väter und Mütter können im ersten Jahr nach der Geburt bei Netflix ab sofort bei voller Bezahlung so viel (oder wenig) arbeiten, wie sie wollen. Mit diesem Angebot ruft der Videostreaming-Dienst in den USA Stürme der Begeisterung hervor. Bezahlte Elternzeit, Parental Leave ist dort eine Seltenheit und gesetzlich nicht geregelt

“Wir wollen, dass unsere Angestellten die Flexibilität und Gewissheit haben, um die Bedürfnisse ihrer wachsenden Familien zu balancieren, ohne sich um Arbeit oder Finanzen kümmern zu müssen”, schreibt Netflix in einem Blogeintrag:

Starting Now at Netflix: Unlimited Maternity and Paternity Leave

At Netflix, we work hard to foster a “freedom and responsibility” culture that gives our employees context about our business and the freedom to make their own decisions along with the accompanying responsibility. With this in mind, today we’re introducing an unlimited leave policy for new moms and dads that allows them to take off as much time as they want during the first year after a child’s birth or adoption.

We want employees to have the flexibility and confidence to balance the needs of their growing families without worrying about work or finances. Parents can return part-time, full-time, or return and then go back out as needed. We’ll just keep paying them normally, eliminating the headache of switching to state or disability pay. Each employee gets to figure out what’s best for them and their family, and then works with their managers for coverage during their absences.

Netflix’s continued success hinges on us competing for and keeping the most talented individuals in their field. Experience shows people perform better at work when they’re not worrying about home. This new policy, combined with our unlimited time off, allows employees to be supported during the changes in their lives and return to work more focused and dedicated.
